Description
The XChange3012 is a 3U conduction- or air-cooled VPX module designed in accordance with OpenVPX™ system architecture specification that provides both PCI Express and Ethernet switches. The PCIe and Gigabit Ethernet fabrics provide switching for a star topology. The Ethernet fabrics allow VPX cards within the system to communicate and also have access to an outside local area network.
The XChange3012 supports an XMC interface via a PCI Express link capable of supporting up to 8 lanes. Dual 10/100/1000Base-T rear I/O from the XMC are also routed directly to the XChange3012's Gigabit Ethernet switch. The XChange3012 can optionally support layer 2 or layer 3 management via an XMC 10/100/1000Base-T interface. XMC RS-232 COM rear I/O can be brought out the P1 connector.
